Manchester United have refused to comment on winger Cristiano Ronaldo's arrest on Wednesday.
The Portugal international is being questioned by detectives on suspicion of rape after taking part in United's goalless draw with Lille on Tuesday night.
The allegations were made after United's 3-2 victory against Fulham on October 1, which led to the ex-Sporting Lisbon wide man staying overnight at a London hotel.
"We're not commenting at the moment," stated United's director of communications Phil Townsend.
Ronaldo is one of the most highly regarded young players in Europe and is in advanced talks over a new contract with The Red Devils.
The interview with the police is taking place with the 20-year-old and his lawyer in Manchester.
The player expected the appointment, which has been planned around his footballing commitments, and is likely to be bailed while the investigation continues.
